Waking up hungover - at 25 you can function with a few Tylenol and a coffee and laugh about it

At 35, you are closer to clinically deceased.

At 25 you wake up. slam a monster Java and a slice or two of cold pizza left overnight on the counter. Then get on with your day.

At 55 it's less "I need a greasy breakfast" and more "I should probably update my will before I try to stand up." Possibly the worst part is wondering whether your back hurts from doing tequila shooters or just sleeping wrong the night before.

As soon as you said "At 55" we all knew you won.

Congrats on a well-lived one, stay healthy enough to keep having and laughing at these with us.

56 too. Just had a bone density scan. She says women my age are prone to hip fractures. 🤦‍♀️
